Question 1

What is the effect of forward bias on junction current?

  • It reduces current
  • It allows current to flow freely
  • It blocks current

💡 Hint: Think about the structure of the junction.

Question 2

True or False: In reverse bias, the collector current flows freely.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Consider the impact of the depletion region.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

If a BJT has a forward bias voltage of 0.7V and the saturation current is 10 microamps, derive the collector current at this voltage assuming exponential behavior.

💡 Hint: Identify what I_S and the exponential factor would imply.

Question 2

Calculate how a decrease in base width to half affects the transistor's current gain assuming all other variables remain constant.

💡 Hint: Consider the relationship between base width and carrier life.
